This Week In Tennis
Vol. 38

The ATP and WTA Tours crowned five winners last week: Caroline Wozkiacki, Lesia Tsurenko, Lara Arruabarrena, Alex Zverev, and Lucas Pouille. Wozniacki (Tokyo) returns to the winner's circle after a calamitous 2016 season which saw her fall to #74 in the rankings before the U.S. Open. Zverev (St. Petersburg) and Pouille (Metz) backed up their hype as "next generation" standouts by winning their first ATP titles. Meanwhile, Tsurenko (Guangzhou) and Arruabarrena (Seoul) each won the second WTA titles of their careers.

#ThisWeekInTennis recaps the last week of tennis through tweets, articles, podcasts, and rankings.

Caroline Wozniacki won her first WTA title in 18 months. The former world #1 entered the U.S. Open ranked #74. However, a semifinal run in New York, coupled with this Tokyo title, vaults her back to #22 in this week's rankings. Her Tokyo triumph also means Wozniacki has won a WTA title in nine consecutive seasons.
